Recently, a lot of our friends and customers have asked us about dog training and how to properly use treats when training dogs. We found the following article to be very helpful:

There are many different approaches to dog training and many different ways of implementing each of those approaches. Most techniques utilized today however, are premised upon the idea that positive reinforcement is likely to create the best results. Virtually every truly functional dog training system is outgrowth of positive reinforcement thinking.

Regardless of which specific program a dog owner may choose to adopt, there are common pitfalls that can be avoided. Dog owners are particularly susceptible to making three critical errors, which if avoided will make the training process far more enjoyable and effective. Three of the most common mistakes are inconsistency, impatience and treating the dog as a subject instead of a training partner.

Inconsistency

Consistency may be hobgoblin of little minds in terms of the need for human creativity. With respect to dog training, however, inconsistency is the quickest way to reduce the experience’s effectiveness.

Dogs thrive on predictability. In fact, their ability to grasp cause and effect is at the very root of training. Operant conditioning is predicated on the fact that dogs will begin to associate events with consistent outcomes. This notion of consistency’s importance must be extended to the overall process of dog training.

A dog is likely to best respond to a system in which regular actions produce regular results. Too often, dog owners fail to be entirely consistent. In the dog’s mind, these lapses in regularity convey a sense of randomness to the process and make it difficult for the pet to associate his specific behaviors with specific results-the key to training. Dogs will excel when they are taught that things happen for specific reasons. When surprises occur it undermines the whole of the training process.

A successful trainer will retain consistency and will not deviate from an established course.

Impatience

There can be a great deal of frustration in dog training. Concepts we believe dogs should be able to grasp easily often escape them completely for quite some time.

We live in a world that is so often focused on immediate results. We learn to expect that our actions will be met by prompt, anticipated responses. Dog training runs counter to this societal trend toward speedy, immediate gratification. Training is an extended process that can require a great deal of patience from the trainer.

Impatience results in unpredictability on the part of the owner as they hastily cease a training session or abandon positive reinforcement techniques in hopes of finding a shortcut to desired results. Patience is, indeed, a virtue when one considers the role of the owner in a dog training situation.

A successful trainer will master developing a patient outlook throughout the extended process of dog training.

Treating the Dog as a Subject Instead of a Partner

Dog training requires two participants: the dog and the owner. Frequently, however, owners tend to perceive the process as being uniquely about them. They fret over their techniques, equipment and strategies without giving real consideration to their training partner, the dog.

When an owner approaches the dog as a simple subject for experimentation, they lose track of what makes the dog unique and denigrate the always-important dog/owner relationship. Training becomes a chore, rather than a joint activity. What might have been a pleasurable chance for interaction becomes an un-enjoyable task.

Dogs are sufficiently intuitive to be attuned to a trainer’s attitude and are less receptive to learning when they are treated merely as a subject instead of as a complete being. Owners who fail to see their pet’s identity during training are unable to pick up on subtle clues and possible means to improve their techniques.

The successful trainer will treat his dog as a full partner in training, not merely as a subject.

By avoiding these three common pitfalls, a dog owner is more likely to be able to implement a training strategy that produces results. Additionally, the training experience is likely to be enjoyable for both the dog and owner, giving them a tremendous opportunity to build their relationship. Regardless of the exact methodology adopted by the owner, the training process will benefit extraordinarily from avoiding the mistakes of inconsistency, impatience and treating your pet as a subject instead of as a partner.

Dog ticks are very common in dogs that are always in the woods or are always out on a hike. Ticks can affect other household pets so try to keep them apart whenever one of them is suffering from this condition.

While there are dog tick creams and lotions that do work in killing ticks, they rarely can physically eliminate them. Dead ticks end up still attached to your dog’s hair, making them feel itchy and uncomfortable.

Removing dog ticks with tweezers is bad practice. There are different types of ticks and there are some species that can attach themselves to humans. Using tweezers alone don’t really protect you from these parasites. Also, tweezers may burst the tick’s body, thereby poisoning your pet even more. Certain dog ticks can cause blood poisoning and you definitely wouldn’t want this to happen to your pet.

The best way to remove ticks from your dog is to use your hands. Of course, you have to be equipped with the right protection like surgical gloves and a long sleeved shirt. Put several sheets of newspaper on the floor and let your dog sit on it. Look for the ticks that have possibly found their way in your dog’s body. If you do find one, slowly remove it with your hand. Pinch and then twist it in a counter clockwise direction while pulling outwards.

Don’t apply too much pressure on the tick as its body could burst open. However, if you’re having a hard time taking them out, add a little more pressure up until you can fully eliminate them from your dog’s body. Once the tick is out, you have to dispose of it by crushing it within the pages of the newspaper. You can also put it on a bowl filled with bleach and then flush all of them in the toilet afterwards.

Ticks cause small wounds in dogs. Imagine them as blood-sucking parasites that permanently stick their mouth into your dog’s skin. They take as much blood from your pet as they want. This is the reason why they are very hard to remove at times. And once you had taken them out, there will be small wounds to take care of. Clean and disinfect such wounds by applying antiseptic creams topically. Dettol and Germolene are good brands.

Ticks are in their prime during April to October. As such, you should minimize taking your dog out in the woods or open fields at this time of the year. Ticks love the warmer weather. The only time they can’t thrive is during the winter days. If in case you really have to take your faithful dog for a hike during the summer, at least give it some protection from these parasites.

Natural tick repellants such as garlic and vinegar can help. Just a few drops added to your pet’s drinking water would do the trick. Also, the commercially available anti-tick powders, creams, and oil, also work. Tick-repelling collars are widely available these days too. Be sure to attach it to your pet whenever you two would like to have fun under the sun.

Question by Checkers- the -Wolf: Don’t you agree?
I’ve read various stuff about people being againest others who want to breed their dogs purebred or wanting to do a mix. Personally I like dogs of various breeds. Designer dogs such as: Labradoodles which originated in Australia around the 70s and/or 80s where bred for blind people with allergies. Since the labrodor has excellent guide dog abilites and the poodle has hypo-allergic coat.

I hate reading stuff like: “Don’t breed your dog” adopt one from a shelter” or this one “don’t buy a purebred, get one from a shelter, there’s too many pets in need of homes already!”

I’m totally aware of that and I feel sorry for them. It is a good idea to have your dog fixed for various reasons. But nonetheless I get tired of reading stuff like this.

Not everyone can afford to buy a purebred dog or possibly a designer. Also I imagine most people don’t want a shelter dog either since they might be: seniors, have special needs or have a mental disorder of some sort. Don’t you agree?
I mean seriously, a dog is a dog regardless of being a purbred or mixed.
I once had a Beagle mix (1993-2004) she was a good dog but she did have a ‘problem’ we got her from a rescue but we think she was abused before we got her cause she was afriad of people, especially men. I currently live a pug and beagle. Both are purebreds and the best of friends.
